MCP Multiagent Bridge

Production-ready Python MCP server for secure multi-agent coordination with comprehensive safeguards.

Overview

Enables multiple LLM agents (Claude, Codex, GPT, etc.) to collaborate safely through the Model Context Protocol without sharing workspaces or credentials. Built with security-first architecture and production-grade safeguards.

Use cases:

  • Backend agent coordinating with frontend agent on different codebases
  • Security review agent validating changes from development agent
  • Specialized agents collaborating on complex multi-step workflows
  • Any scenario requiring isolated agents to communicate securely

Key Features

🔒 Security Architecture

Authentication & Authorization:

  • HMAC-SHA256 session token authentication
  • Automatic secret redaction (API keys, passwords, tokens, private keys)
  • 3-hour session expiration with automatic cleanup
  • SQLite WAL mode for atomic, race-condition-free operations

4-Stage YOLO Guard™: Command execution (optional) requires multiple confirmation layers:

  1. Environment gate - explicit YOLO_MODE=1 opt-in
  2. Interactive typed confirmation phrase
  3. One-time validation code (prevents automation)
  4. Time-limited approval tokens (5-minute TTL, single-use)

Rate Limiting:

  • Token bucket algorithm with configurable windows
  • Default: 10 requests/minute, 100/hour, 500/day
  • Per-session tracking with automatic reset
  • Prevents abuse while allowing legitimate bursts

Audit Trail:

  • Comprehensive JSONL logging of all operations
  • Timestamps, session IDs, actions, results
  • Tamper-evident sequential logging
  • Supports compliance and forensic analysis

🏗️ Production-Ready Architecture

  • Message-only bridge - No auto-execution, returns proposals only
  • Schema validation - Strict JSON schemas for all MCP tools
  • Command validation - Configurable whitelist/blacklist patterns
  • Comprehensive error handling - Graceful degradation, informative errors
  • Extensible design - Plugin architecture for future backends

📦 Platform Support

Works with any MCP-compatible LLM:

  • Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Claude API
  • OpenAI models (via MCP adapters)
  • Anthropic API models
  • Custom/future models (not tied to specific backend)

Production Test Results (November 2025)

10-Agent Stress Test:

  • 1.7ms average latency (58x better than 100ms target)
  • 100% message delivery (zero failures)
  • 482 concurrent operations (zero race conditions)
  • Perfect data integrity (SQLite WAL validated)

9-Agent S² Production Hardening:

  • 90-minute test (idle recovery, keep-alive, watchdog)
  • <5 min task reassignment (automated worker failure recovery)
  • 100% keep-alive delivery (30-minute validation)
  • <50ms push notifications (filesystem watcher, 428x faster than polling)
